"Grandma, do you remember the name of that relative? Where do you live?" Wu Tanchun could no longer suppress the joy in his heart when he heard the news of the pool of blood. He held Old Madam Jia's wrinkled hands tightly and asked anxiously.
"Eh? What's wrong with you today? Why was it so strange?
It's just a coincidence. Look at you asking as if it's some earth-shattering event. It's really strange. Although the old madam of Guang Jia is old, her brain is not muddled. When she saw Wu Tanchun's abnormal behavior today, she already had some doubts about her.
" This..." Wu Tanchun struggled internally. She didn't know if she should reveal the truth to the old granny. However, when she thought of her promise to Zhuge Yuanqiao, she steeled her heart and lied through gritted teeth,""Actually, I was filled with unwillingness. When I thought about how the thing that I had racked my brains to make actually looked like a human, I had to see it no matter what.”
"You!" This girl was unwilling to admit defeat. She always had to argue with others. She really did not know whether to say good or bad about this kind of personality.
"Sigh, forget it! Since you're unwilling, I'll tell you. That relative has the same surname as us and lives in the north of Jin Ling city. If you want to visit them and see that thing, you just have to use your grandmother's name. I think they won't make things difficult for you.”
After listening to Old Madam Jia's words, Wu Tanchun felt even more guilty because she had lied to this old woman who had treated her so well that she could not be any better. This made her heart heavy and she could not help but shed tears." Grandma, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry."”She swore that after everything was settled, she would definitely go to the old lady and beg for forgiveness. She would report the entire matter to her in detail.
"Silly girl, why are you apologizing? It's just a coincidence that you made something similar for me. Why would Grandma fuss over such a small matter with a silly girl like you? The most important thing is your sincere heart.”
Old Madam Jia didn't understand why Wu Tanchun felt so guilty, so she treated her as a gift.
"I understand, I understand." Wu Tanchun had the urge to explain the old lady's misunderstanding to her. If she had not promised Zhuge Yuanqiao beforehand, she would definitely have said it out loud now. "Alright! Seeing that it was getting late, it was time to eat. Tanchun wouldn't disturb the old granny. If there was a chance in the future, I would definitely visit again. At that time, I guarantee that I would give you an extra-large gift as compensation.”To compensate for lying to her.
"Extra-large gift?" " Is he the man you like?" the old man asked half-jokingly.”
"A man?" Heavens, earth, please spare her! "Grandma, if you want to marry Tanchun in this life, I guarantee you won't have a chance. You know my personality the best. Which man in the world can stand me like this, right?”
"Hehe, it's hard to say!" Tanchun was not only beautiful, but also intelligent. Only a man with discerning eyes would have the fortune to marry such a good girl.
A while ago, she had heard Baoyu mention someone called Zhuge who seemed to be very fond of their Tanchun. She thought that he must have had intentions.
Although she didn't intend to interfere with this kind of thing, she was happy to see it happen. As long as this pair of children liked each other, then…Haha, the Jia residence would be lively for a few days!
Wu Tanchun, who didn't know what the old lady was thinking, saw the faint smile on her face and couldn't help but feel his scalp go numb and his entire body go cold. He hurriedly said goodbye and ran away as fast as he could.
That night, the same black-clothed man appeared in the Jia Residence's Grand View Garden again.
However, seeing that his movements were strange and he was walking on tiptoe, he carefully observed the surroundings as he walked. After making sure that no one had discovered his tracks, he turned around and knocked on a familiar door a few times.
Zhuge Yuanqiao, who was reading by candlelight in his room, thought that his good friend Jia Baoyu had come to visit him at night when he heard the knock. He opened the door and looked outside, only to see that the person outside was dressed in black. It was very similar to the way he had dressed when he visited the Jia residence at night. This was clearly targeted at him!
"Who are you? Why are you dressed like this?" This was his signature, how could he allow others to imitate it!
"Shh! Keep your voice down." Heavens! Was he afraid that the world would not fall into chaos?
Shouldn't he be afraid of being heard? "Wu Tanchun, do you understand? Hurry up and let me in."
As soon as she finished speaking, she didn't care if he was willing or not. She directly reached out and pushed him in. Then, she removed the black cloth covering her face and faced him with a beautiful face.
"It's so late, and you actually went to a man's room alone. Aren't you afraid of being discovered and ruining your reputation?”This woman's courage was really too big. She always liked to do shocking things and make people worry for her. She was really a stupid woman who did not know death.
"Humph!" In Wu Tanchun's eyes, a woman's reputation was nothing. As the saying goes, the pure will be pure, and the dirty will be dirty. She only wanted to live up to the heavens and earth, no matter what people said. "I already have news about the Blood Amber. Are you going to listen or not?”This was the reason she came here tonight. She couldn't be bothered to waste her breath on anything else.
Upon hearing the word 'blood-pot', Zhuge Yuanqiao was no longer in the mood for anything else. He took a step forward and anxiously clamped her thin shoulders, asking,""Quickly tell me, where is the Blood Amber now? Who collected it?"
"Let go! You're hurting me!" The strength of this man's hand was really scary. Although he was only lightly grabbing her shoulders and not letting go, the strength was enough to pinch her tender white skin red. Wu Tanchun didn't need to take off his clothes to know that his shoulders were bruised!
" When he heard her cry out in pain, Zhuge Yuanqiao quickly let go of her with a guilty expression and said anxiously,""Come! Let me see if I hurt you."
See? "Haha! Dare I ask this gentleman, what do you think? Do you want me to take off my clothes in front of you and let you see it clearly?”A bunch of nonsense was useless.
" This…" His inappropriate words made Zhuge Yuanqiao's handsome face turn red again." I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose, really! I really did it on purpose. I hope Miss can forgive my slip of the tongue and rude behavior just now.”
"Hahaha!" Wu Tanchun couldn't help but burst into laughter when he saw his handsome face flushed as red as the sunset. Not only was he laughing exaggeratedly, he even bent over and held his stomach as he laughed until he cried.
Seeing the woman laugh so impudently, Zhuge Yuanqiao was instantly enraged and glared at her angrily. He forced her to stop talking before he returned to the main topic,"Now, Young Lady, can you speak clearly?”
"Yes, yes." The angrier Zhuge Yuanqiao was, the more Wu Tanchun could not control his laughter. If it wasn't for the fact that she was still a little afraid of his angry eyes, she might have laughed again, not caring that he was so angry that he was blowing his beard and glaring at her. "I went to see the old granny today and learned from her that a distant relative of the Jia family has something like what you described. As for whether that thing is really the blood amber you mentioned, I have to personally verify it.”
"You want to go personally?" Zhuge Yuanqiao frowned and pondered, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was inappropriate. He didn't know if this matter was dangerous, and he really didn't feel at ease letting her take the risk alone. "I think it's better for me to accompany you.”
For some reason, Zhuge Yuanqiao just couldn't stand the fact that she might encounter any danger. This would make him feel inexplicably anxious and uneasy. No matter what, he would never agree to let her take the risk personally.
"You want to go with me?" "May I ask what identity do you wish to use to accompany me, Master Zhuge?" Wu Tanchun asked in amusement.”The two of them were neither relatives nor husband and wife. If the truth was revealed, the gossip would be even more unbearable.
"This is a problem." Indeed, there was no place for him. How could he accompany a girl to visit her relatives and friends? No matter what, it did not make sense.
Suddenly, Zhuge Yuanqiao had an idea." How about this? I'll go with you in the name of your fiancé. How about this?"”
"Fiancé?" Humph! This was clearly taking advantage of her!
"Not good, not good. I think you should accompany me, the daughter of a rich family, in the name of a servant of the Jia family. That way, people won't gossip.”
There was no way he could take advantage of her! She, Wu Tanchun, would eat anything but suffer no losses. Rather than letting him be named as her fiancé, it was better to let him be a servant.
"Servant?" Zhuge Yuanqiao could not help but widen his eyes when he heard this. He could not agree with this lowly identity. As the prince of the Sile Kingdom, how could he be a servant? If this matter were to spread to the Sile Kingdom, where would his dignity be?
"It's fine if you're unwilling. Why don't I go there myself? You can just wait for my news in the residence.”In any case, Wu Tanchun had not included Zhuge Yuanqiao in his plans from the very beginning. Whether he was involved or not, it would not affect her plans.
"No!" Zhuge Yuanqiao was not at ease to let this reckless woman take the risk alone, but he had no other choice. In the end, he could only agree with her suggestion," Alright! I will follow your suggestion and be your servant to accompany you.”
"Haha! That's great, then it's decided!" Wu Tanchun heaved a sigh of relief at the thought of someone accompanying him.
Although she said that she was not afraid and even boldly decided to go by herself, she was still a little afraid in her heart. After all, it was difficult to prevent the unknown situation from hiding any danger.
Now that she had Zhuge Yuanqiao's company, she could finally rest assured.
In the dead of the night, a man and a woman were alone in the same room. Wu Tanchun had always been a careless person, so it was only natural that he did not think too much about it. However, Zhuge Yuanqiao was different.
After the matter was settled, he first realized the awkward situation. He wanted to ask her to leave, but he felt inexplicably reluctant. For some reason, he selfishly wanted to keep this woman in his room for a while longer, even if it was just for a moment.
"Uh…Do you know how to play chess?" If he wanted to keep someone, he had to think of an excuse first. Zhuge Yuanqiao could not think of a good idea, so he could only use the chessboard on the table to come up with a very clumsy excuse.
"Go?" Wu Tanchun had always liked dynamic games, so she couldn't get excited when she saw the chessboard. She shook her head and said,"If we were competing in martial arts, I could still exchange two or three moves with you, but this…"
She pointed at the chessboard on the table and shook her head."I'm not good at this."
"Then…"
"There's no need to do that! It's late at night. We still have important things to do tomorrow. It's better to go to bed early so that we have the energy to deal with tomorrow's matters, understand?”As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Tanchun turned around and was about to leave.
Zhuge Yuanqiao saw that she was really going to leave, so he could not help but reach out his hand to stop her from leaving.
Wu Tanchun, whose hand had been pulled back and couldn't leave, turned around in confusion. Who knew that this glance would make her heart inexplicably beat faster? This was the first time she had encountered such a strange feeling in her life.
She struggled to move her gaze away, but those deep and deep eyes were like a strong magnet, forcefully locking her watery eyes, making it impossible for her to break free.
In an instant, the man and woman were silent. They looked at each other, neither of them could move, neither of them could shift their gaze away. Involuntarily, Zhuge Yuanqiao pulled her into his arms and hugged her slender body tightly. He could smell the faint fragrance coming from her body. He was really drunk without drinking.
Wu Tanchun, who was in Zhuge Yuanqiao's arms, was struggling with his rationality and emotions. Her rationality told her that she should have pushed him away and not shamelessly let him hug her tightly. However, her emotions were alluring her. She praised his warm embrace and praised him for giving her an unprecedented sense of security.
This was the first time Wu Tanchun had felt this sense of security since he fell from the ancient times. In his arms, she was no longer an orphan without a father or family. Instead, she was a treasure, a treasure that belonged only to him.
Wu Tanchun's lack of struggle was like a silent encouragement to Zhuge Yuanqiao. He couldn't help but feel excited and wanted to take a step further to pick up her sweetness. With one hand supporting her delicate and beautiful chin, he aimed at her red and tender lips and slowly inched closer. Inch by inch, the distance between their lips was about to-
Suddenly, there was a series of knocks on the door, waking up the man and woman who were almost blinded by lust.
Wu Tanchun anxiously wanted to push him away, but Zhuge Yuanqiao insisted on not letting go. He only used his eyes to signal her to keep quiet before shouting at the door,"Who is it?"
"Brother, it's me, Jia Baoyu."
Brother Bao! Heavens!
When he heard that the person outside was Jia Baoyu, Wu Tanchun panicked even more." What should we do? What should we do now?" It was already shocking enough for a young lady to visit a man's room at night. If Jia Baoyu saw them hugging each other again, she would not be able to clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River!
"Don't panic." Zhuge Yuanqiao was amused by Wu Tanchun's panic. He never thought that this woman would have such a day of panic. It was really rare!
"Brother, if there's nothing important, can you come back tomorrow morning? I've already taken off my clothes and gone to bed to rest, so it's really inconvenient…You know!”He shouted at the people outside the door calmly.
Know what? Why would two men have to worry so much? Jia Baoyu couldn't figure out the reason behind this, so he stubbornly insisted on his own opinion." Brother, it's indeed an urgent matter for my brother to visit tonight. Could you please open the door and let me in first?”It was really inconvenient to shout like this!
It seemed that he would not be able to chase Jia Baoyu away tonight! Zhuge Yuanqiao had no choice but to carry Wu Tanchun by the waist and place him on his bed. He covered her mouth before she could speak and said,""Now, do as I say. No objections are allowed.”As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuge Yuanqiao suddenly stretched out his hand and wanted to take off Wu Tanchun's clothes. How could this Wu Tanchun be willing? She raised her hand and slapped him hard. Just as she was about to curse at him, she did not expect his lips to take the opportunity to seal her mouth. He even violated her chest with his hands.
At this moment, Jia Baoyu, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time without Zhuge Yuanqiao coming to open the door, simply reached out and pushed the door open. He did not expect that the door would really be pushed open by him. As soon as he stepped in, he saw scenes of spring playing out on the bed like fire and tea, making him extremely embarrassed. He could only quietly retreat out of the room and run back to his room.
Originally, she only wanted to drive Jia Baoyu away and not let him discover the fact that Wu Tanchun had visited her at night. Who knew that this kiss would make Zhuge Yuanqiao unable to help but indulge in the taste of her sandalwood mouth and unable to extricate himself.
Wu Tanchun had no idea why he would suddenly do such a bold and presumptuous thing to her, but she couldn't resist his hot lips. His forceful kiss made it even harder for her to breathe. Her brain was so swollen that she couldn't think of anything. She could only helplessly cling to his neck, sinking into his warm and strong embrace, allowing him to do whatever he wanted.
The uncontrollable passion was like a spreading flame. In an instant, it became a huge flame that burned endlessly in the silent night, engulfing their rationality and devouring their last perseverance.
The passionate passion and seductive desire finally made the man and woman fall into the deepest sea of desire…
The next morning, Wu Tanchun was the first to open her eyes. She looked at the scenery before her, feeling extremely unfamiliar.
Strange, this wasn't her room! Why was she sleeping here?
As she thought of this, a series of charming scenes flashed through her mind, and her face instantly turned red. She turned around and saw that the detestable man was still sleeping soundly. This made the flames of anger in her chest burn even more wildly. He could still sleep so soundly after causing such a huge disaster. It really made people gnash their teeth in hatred.
If she had a sharp knife in her hand, she would stab him to vent her hatred. Unfortunately, she did not have a knife. Otherwise…hmph hmph, this day next year would be the anniversary of Zhuge Yuanqiao's death!
It was all his fault! It was all his fault! If it wasn't for him, she wouldn't have lost her virginity for no reason last night. Damn it!
Wu Tanchun really wanted to give him a few tight punches, but the thought of doing so would wake him up. At that time, he was afraid that the matter would only get worse. If this scandal was unfortunately publicized, how could she, Wu Tanchun, still have the face to stay in the Jia residence?
After careful consideration, Wu Tanchun finally decided to let him go. He quietly got up and planned to get out of bed and put on his clothes.
Who knew that as soon as she moved, she would frown in pain. Heavens!
So this was how women felt after their first night.
This was simply living hell! How could there be any romantic sentiment to speak of?
Liar! All the men in the world are liars!
She, Wu Tanchun, swore that she would never let any man get within three steps of her in this lifetime!
After that awkward night, Wu Tanchun did not want to have anything to do with Zhuge Yuanqiao anymore. However, she had to fulfill her promise to him. Under the circumstances where she had no other choice, she could only ask Miao Yuan and Miao Fang to accompany her to the relative's house that the old lady mentioned.
Jia Huo was a distant relative of the Jia family. If Jia Huo had not gone to the Jia residence to make friends, the Jia family would have long forgotten that he still had this distant cousin.
The reason why Jia Huo would go to the Jia residence to look for Old Master Jia was because he wanted to rely on this powerful relative to help him rise to the ranks of the rich and powerful.
When he heard the gatekeeper enter and report that one of the twelve golden hairpins of the Jia residence, Miss Wu Tanchun, had come to visit, he naturally did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly went out to welcome her.
After the two of them exchanged pleasantries, Wu Tanchun was warmly received by Jia Huo in the reception hall. Wu Tanchun did not stand on ceremony and said,?? "A few days ago, I went to pay my respects to the old granny and was fortunate enough to hear from the old granny that uncle has an extraordinary treasure. I heard that this treasure is completely blood-red and there is even a blood eagle soaring in the sky engraved on it. Tanchun was curious and came to disturb me. I wonder if uncle can take a look and let Tanchun experience it?”
"Good! Since the old grandma had personally mentioned it, how could Uncle refuse? Wait here for a while, I'll be right back.”As soon as he finished speaking, Jia Huo really turned around and entered the inner room. Not long after, he walked out with a sandalwood box in his hand.
"Is the treasure in this box?”Wu Tanchun asked excitedly, reaching out to take a closer look.
Unexpectedly, Jia Huo dodged her hand and personally opened the wooden box before bringing it to Wu Tanchun for her to admire." Come! Look."
Wu Tanchun couldn't help but scold Jia Huo for being stingy when he saw how cautious he was, but he couldn't say anything. He could only hold Jia Huo's hand and carefully examine the treasure.
It was exactly as Zhuge Yuanqiao had described. Its entire body was red and square. Wu Tanchun did not dare to touch it with his hands and could only observe it carefully with his large eyes. It indeed looked like it was made of blood jade. If he wanted to steal the sky and change the sun, he would have to spend some effort to do so.
With an idea in mind, Wu Tanchun retracted his gaze and looked up at Jia Huo politely."Thank you for your generosity, uncle. Tanchun was lucky enough to admire this world's treasures. When I return, I will definitely report uncle's hospitality to the old granny. I believe that with the level of love the old granny has for me, she will definitely return the favor.”Wu Tanchun left with the two maidservants.#
